Definitions
- the present invention relates to an index card which is arranged along the inner walls of a case that houses a magnetic recording medium such as an audio tape cassette, a video tape cassette or a floppy disk cassette, and on which the contents of the magnetic recording medium are recorded. More particularly, it relates to an index card which has been improved so that printing can be conducted over its entire surface when printing is conducted with use of a printer of a word processor or personal computer.
- magnetic recording mediums such as audio tape cassettes and video tape cassettes which store sounds or images on magnetic tape, or magnetic disk cartridges which record computer or word processor data on discoid magnetic disks.
- a magnetic recording medium is stored in a storage case, and preserved so that there are no adhesions of dust to the magnetic tape or magnetic disk.
- the storage case is molded from transparent or semi-transparent resin material so that the recorded contents of the magnetic recording medium which are described on an index card arranged along the inner wall can be read from the outside of the storage case as necessary.
- a storage case 1 (shown by the imaginary line) shown in Fig. 7 is a transparent or semi-transparent one which houses, for example, a 3.5 inch magnetic disk cartridge.
- a cover part of one side which has a pocket for insertion of the cartridge, and a casing part (case body) of the other side are configured to freely open and close via pivots 15.
- An index card 5 is provided inside the cover part; this index card 5 is formed by folding into a U-shape a paper which has a rectangular shape when unfolded.
- the index card 5 comprises three parts: a first narrow part 6 which extends along a first wall 2 of the storage case 1 extending depthwise; a wide part 7 which extends along a second inner wall 3 of the storage case 1 extending widthwise and perpendicularly to the first wall 2 and which is provided so as to be connected to the narrow part 6; and a second narrow part 8 which extends along a third inner wall 4 of the storage case 1 extending in parallel opposite to the second inner wall 3 and which is provided so as to be connected to the first narrow part 6. It is formed by folding it into a U-shape using border lines between the respective parts as the folding lines.
- the storage case 9 shown in Fig. 8 is a transparent or semi-transparent book type which allows insertion of, for example, a video cassette from the direction of arrow X.
- the index card 12 comprises two parts: a first narrow part 13 which extends along a first wall 10 of the storage case 9 extending depthwise in the storage case 9; and a wide part 14 which extends along a second inner wall 11 of the storage case 9 extending widthwise in the storage case 9 perpendicular to the first wall 10 and which is provided so as to be connected to the narrow part 136.
- the index card is formed in a manner so that it is folded into an L-shape using the border line between the two parts as a folding line.
- the commonly used conventional methods are to write directly by hand using a writing implement such as a pen, or to describe using instant lettering which is transferred by rubbing the letters provided on a seal.
- PCs word processors and personal computers
- word processors and PCs are not able to print within a range of approximately 15 millimeters from the lower end of the paper to be printed on.
- an index card has been used wherein the wide part of the index card is extended, and this extension can be detached by perforations, for example.
- An object of the present invention is to provide an index card with superior convenience of use which allows printing over the entire surface of the narrow part and the wide part with use of a printer of a word processor or PC.
- an index card which is to be mounted in a folded state inside a case for housing a magnetic recording medium and which has a rectangular form when unfolded, characterized by comprising: a first narrow part which extends along a first inner wall of the case extending depthwise; a first wide part which extends along a second inner wall of the case perpendicular to the first wall and which is provided so as to be connected to the first narrow part; a second wide part provided so as to be connected to an end of the first wide part at a side thereof opposite the first narrow part; and a second narrow part provided so as to be connected to an end of the second wide part at a side thereof opposite the first wide part; wherein when folding is conducted with a border line between the first wide part and the second wide part as a folding line, the second wide part overlaps the first wide part, and the second narrow part overlaps the first narrow part.
- the object can also be attained by a configuration in which a third narrow part, which extends along a third wall of the case extending in parallel opposite to the second inner wall, is provided so as to be connected to an end of the first narrow part at a side thereof opposite the first wide part, and a fourth narrow part is provided so as to be connected to an end of the second narrow part at a side thereof opposite the second wide part, and in that the third narrow part overlaps the fourth narrow part when folding is conducted along the folding line.
- the object can also be attained by a configuration wherein perforations are provided on the folding line, and further by a configuration wherein a folding part capable of clamping is provided so as to be connected to the end of one of the sides which is parallel to the folding line, and wraps around the end of the other side when folding is conducted.
- the magnetic recording medium mentioned herein refers to a magnetic tape cassette which records images and/or sounds, such as an audio cassette or a VTR cassette, or to a magnetic disk cartridge which preserves the data of a computer or word processor.
- Fig. 1 is an overall perspective view of the index card according to a first embodiment
- Fig. 2 is an overall perspective view of the rear side of the index card shown in Fig. 1
- Fig. 3 is a development showing the printed state of the index card shown in Fig. 1
- Fig. 4 is another development showing the printed state of the index card shown in Fig. 1
- Fig. 5 is a development of the index card according to a second embodiment of the present invention
- Fig. 6 is a side view showing the state where the index card shown in Fig. 5 is arranged inside a magnetic recording medium storage case.
- an index card 20 is used in an open-close type storage case 30 which stores a compact video tape cassette; when viewed from the side, it is seen to be folded into a U-shape.
- the index card 20 has a rectangular external form, and is divided into 6 parts by border lines which are parallel to a pair of shorter sides.
- a first narrow part 21 along the first wall 33 of the storage case 30 there are provided a first narrow part 21 along the first wall 33 of the storage case 30, a first wide part 22 along the second wall 34, and a third narrow part 25 along the third wall 35.
- a second wide part 23, a second narrow part 24, and a fourth narrow part 26 are provided so as to be connected together to be contiguous with the first wide part 22.
- the second wide part 23 overlaps the first wide part 22
- the second narrow part 24 overlaps the first narrow part 21
- the fourth narrow part 26 overlaps the third narrow part 25.
